In the office, Park Jin Hyuk is watching the financial channel.
"A few days ago, people were generally negative about DS Pharmaceuticals' acquisition of North Pharmaceuticals. However, after learning that North Pharmaceuticals had a new drug about to enter clinical trials and that North Pharmaceuticals would continue to develop new drugs, public opinion began to shift."
"Is it because the merger and acquisition has indeed helped enhance DS Pharmaceuticals' R&D capabilities?"
"Yes, this is all achieved under the leadership of Managing Director Park Jin Hyuk."
"Why do you say that?"
"North Pharmaceuticals was originally a small, unknown company. Executive Director Park Jin Hyuk saw its potential and decisively invested to become its largest shareholder. He has maintained a good working relationship with the company and successfully facilitated this acquisition. It can truly be said to be a stroke of genius on his part."
Not long ago, experts who were still expressing negative opinions began to praise Park Jin Hyuk.
In fact, this was also what Park Jin Hyuk intended to direct.
Only by giving affirmation after negation can this kind of affirmation leave a strong and deep impression on people.
Most people are used to being tolerant of themselves and critical of others. This is human instinct.
Therefore, when people hear bad news, it is easy to form a negative view.
At this time, when the experts present solid facts and praise the other party, people will unconsciously sigh.
"From a certain perspective, the price DS Pharmaceuticals paid to acquire North Pharmaceuticals was very appropriate."
"Are you saying $1 billion is a good price?"
"It's equivalent to 1.2 trillion won (about 6.3 billion RMB), which may seem like a lot, but it's actually not expensive. As long as North continues to successfully develop new drugs, the future profits will far exceed the investment."
"North has only successfully developed one new drug right now, right?"
"Only one is worth $1 billion. If there are two or three, it's not $1 billion. This also shows that Executive Director Park Jin-hyuk, as the largest shareholder, has made great sacrifices."
"How should this be understood?"
"For Executive Director Park Jin Hyuk, there was no need to sell his shares at this point. If he had continued to hold on, the shares would surely have continued to appreciate. It is reported that Bayer Group had approached him before the merger, hoping to purchase his shares. However, Executive Director Park Jin Hyuk did not sell his shares to a foreign company, but instead kept them in Korea. This is a touching act of patriotism."
Seeing this, Park Jin Hyuk reached out and turned off the TV.
"Overall, it's not bad, but it's a bit too high. What's the point of talking about patriotism?"
Jin Junyu smiled and said:
“When building an image, it’s okay to be a little over the top.”
"I know that the Chinese people are very sensitive about patriotism, and that's also..."
In any case, DS Pharmaceuticals' acquisition of North Pharmaceuticals is nearing completion, and the news of the successful acquisition will be announced soon.
This means that DS Pharmaceuticals has taken a crucial step on the road to becoming a large international pharmaceutical company.

Dang, Dang~
"Come in."
Mao Dayong pushed the door and walked into Park Jin Hyuk's office.
"Director Park, I'm back from Austria."
Park Jin Hyuk immediately stood up and went to meet him.
"Thank you for your hard work. I heard you came back today. Did you come directly from the airport?"
As they talked, they sat down on the sofa.
These days, President Mao went on a business trip to the headquarters of North Pharmaceuticals.
Ostensibly, it was for mergers and acquisitions, but in reality, it was to discuss with North and adjust the current direction of new drug research and development.
One of the prerequisites for DS Pharmaceuticals to acquire North is to give the other party autonomy in research and development.
Therefore, for matters like adjusting the direction of new drug research and development, Mao Dayong could only be sent to negotiate with the other party in a friendly manner.
The North side did not understand at first, but after Mao Dayong explained the reasons in detail, the other party accepted and agreed.
Mao Dayong said:
"People who are professional in R&D are usually quite conceited about their R&D capabilities, but as long as you point out their problems with reason and evidence, they will recognize it and make corrections immediately."
"I really didn't expect it to be so smooth."
"Through this incident, they have gained more trust in us because we helped them find problems that they themselves could not find."
"It seems that people who do research have a different style of doing things from ordinary people."
"That's why I was willing to do research in the past."
At Park Jin Hyuk's suggestion, Mao Dayong conducted in-depth research on the development of North's new drug and found out why the new drug is more effective in treating pancreatic cancer than in treating diabetes.
It can be seen that he feels a sense of accomplishment in being able to convince North.
Looking at Mao Dayong's confident look, Park Jin Hyuk knew he could step back.
From now on, Mao Dayong can be allowed to take charge.
After Mao Dayong left, Park Jin Hyuk felt more relaxed than ever before.
Lately, he has been fighting continuously.
Now that a certain foundation has been laid for the overall planning for the future, he can finally take a break.

On this day, Park Jin Hyuk was in the office, reviewing BioLogics' monthly report.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the door.
"Do you know who I am?"
"Sorry, please make an appointment in advance before coming back."
"I still need an appointment? Don't stop me!"
“…I can only see you if I make an appointment in advance.”
Jin Junyu pushed the door open and walked in.
"Manager Park, someone claims to be your friend and has brought some people here."
"My friend?"
"He said he was Cui Zhehan, the eldest son of the Hanjin Group... How do you think we should handle this?"
After following Park Jin Hyuk for so long, Kim Jun Woo has never heard that his boss has any friends.
Occasionally, someone would call the secretary's office looking for Park Jin Hyuk, but Park Jin Hyuk would say he didn't know the other person.
But this is the first time that someone has come directly to the company like today.
Park Jin Hyuk said:
"Cui Zhehan, Cui Zhehan, has he called before?"
"Yes, I've called a few times."
"Then let him in and see what's going on."
